Alone (feat. Eric Boone & Big Krizz Kaliko)

[intro: tech n9ne]

Somebody should have told me

Life can treat you really coldly

A lot of love that people show me

But when they go i’m hella lonely

[verse 1: tech n9ne]

When the music and the show stops

Security keep my bus door locked

That way i’m not receiving no shots

Mj, our little bro dropped and that’s why they keep me so blocked

I’m in the star coach now

In the back by myself, i listen to our dope sounds

But...there was no women to round up

This hound just sleeps deeply, anticipatin' the next town’s luck

It’s glitz and glamour when you’re on stage

Happy ‘cause you and your homies paid

But a lot of my love ones up and gone away

Because i put my music first, for that it's lonely days

[hook: krizz kaliko]

Oh, ain’t no phones ringing, ain’t no one's speaking when you’re alone

Feels like there's no reason for me to keep breathing if i’m gonna be alone

I can’t sleep alone and i can’t go eat alone

Yeah, the crowd gonna shout, but when the lights go out

You know, you know, you know

You know, you know, you know

You know, you know, you know

You know me being me, you wouldn’t think i’d be alone

[verse 2: tech n9ne]

Got off my tour july 7 my children

Kicked it with me up to the 24th, then they go home

Even though my home used to be their home

But due to separation and altercations with their mama’s it left me so alone

And when my girl visits, she got to leave

‘cause she’s independent and has a need to make her own cheese

At night before sleeping i’m on knees

Alone, please, i don’t wanna have the lonelies on beat

My two family members that room with me

They zoom quickly to work and dip out of town, you would assume it'd be

Party, party every night a narly nudy show

But it’s hardly party when you’re starting in the studio

I can’t wait for the meet and greets, making fans

That’s why i be hella happy, hugging and shaking hands

When i perform i want everybody to know

I stretch the show ‘cause when it’s over everybody go

[hook: krizz kaliko]

Oh, ain’t no phone ringing, ain’t no one's speaking when you’re alone

Feels like there's no reason for me to keep breathing if i’m gonna be alone

I can’t sleep alone and i can’t go eat alone

Yeah, the crowd gonna shout, but when the lights go out

You know, you know, you know

You know, you know, you know

You know, you know, you know

You know me being me, you wouldn’t think i’d be alone

[bridge: eric boone]

A storm cloud stalks me making what should be a sunny day

Shed tears of lonesome despair in the form of rain

I've devoted my life to rid you of your pain

For feelings of acceptance which reveal themselves feigned

Do not mind that, scream the voices in my brain

But if i stop giving, only i remain

Though i know not of misery

For i lack the company it needs to be entertained

But misery would be a nice change

This solitude drives me insane

[verse 3: tech n9ne]

Yeah, i think it’s my fault, y’all, ‘cause i’m reclusive

And i’m thinking i lost brauds like y! exclusive

And i know that i might fall, ‘cause life is stupid

‘cause cupid shoots it and i fight off but it might produce its

Love, whatever has it i run

People, pets and even movies that have it, i shun

Thinking back when i had a family, was glad i was some

I picture myself in the future, old mad, sad ‘cause i’m one

[hook: krizz kaliko]

Oh, ain’t no phones ringing, ain’t no one's speaking when you’re alone

Feels like there's no reason for me to keep breathing if i’m gonna be alone

I can’t sleep alone and i can’t go eat alone

Yeah, the crowd gonna shout, but when the lights go out

You know, you know, you know

You know, you know, you know

You know, you know, you know

You know me being me, you wouldn’t think i’d be alone
